We are FMB Strong!
The Woman’s Club is hoping that you are all healthy and doing well.
Since we have been closed due to the Corona Virus, this email will serve as a notice to bring everyone up to date on the club’s agenda going forward. The board has decided to cancel June’s Membership Meeting, based on the CDC guidelines that still recommend social distancing be followed; this includes separating by six feet and not gathering in groups over 10.
Once we do resume normal activity in the club, we will be adopting the Town of Fort Myers Beach protocol for other businesses regarding keeping the premises safe for occupancy. This policy will be posted in the Woman’s Club, should any member want to know what measures will be in effect to keep the club facility clean before and after events / rentals.
The next Woman’s Club Board Meeting will be on June 3rd via Zoom. The general membership will not be meeting until August 5th if the State has announced it is safe to resume general business practice.
We will be evaluating club rentals on a case by case, basis. Rentals will need to follow CDC and Fort Myers Beach gathering recommendations, and will be required to pay the Disinfecting Fee.
We are hoping by August that we will have some great news going forward regarding the campaign to remodel our beloved clubhouse. We are formulating a marketing plan to set a realistic budget and roll out a fundraising campaign that we intend to launch by the end of the year. Stay tuned for updates.
